Stranica 172 - Although thy breath be rude. Heigh, ho ! sing, heigh, ho ! unto the green holly : Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly. Then, heigh, ho*! the holly ! This life is most jolly. Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky, That dost not bite so nigh As benefits forgot : Though thou the waters warp, Thy sting is not so sharp, As friend remembered not.

There is naked Nature, — inhumanly sincere, wasting no thought on man, nibbling at the cliffy shore...
Stranica 167 - Merchants, never to be wrought out of that Trade, and fit for any other. I will not deny but others may gaine as well as they that will use it, though not so certainly, nor so much in...
Stranica 57 - Latitude 41° 33'. pointing out the Spots, on which the Trustees of the Humane Society have erected Huts, and other places where shipwrecked Seamen may look for Shelter.
